WATCH: Great White Shark Does The Unthinkable To Dive Cage… STUNS Boat Crew

Swimming with great white sharks may not sound like anybody’s idea of a good time, but it may — and does — sometimes attract thrill-seekers. This diver, however, wasn’t prepared for the thrill that was awaiting him once he entered the dive cage.

The video, uploaded to YouTube on Thursday, showed the moment when a boat crew tried to bring up a diver from his thrill-seeking adventure and he brought something else back with him: a great white shark.

Filmed by a California man who was on vacation at the time in Mexico, the video showed the great white busting through the dive cage while a man was still inside of it.

The crew scrambled to get the man out, while the shark flailed about inside the cage before finally breaking free. The diver was miraculously unharmed.

The man who captured the footage explained to ABC News that the shark was not being aggressive during the incident.

“These awesome sharks are biting at large chunks of tuna tied to a rope,” he explained. “When a great white shark lunges and bites something, it is temporarily blinded. They also cannot swim backwards. So this shark lunged at the bait, accidentally hit the side of the cage, was most likely confused and not able to swim backwards, it thrust forward and broke the metal rail of the cage.”

Yeah, but would you want to trade places with the man inside the cage, regardless of how blind that shark was at the time? Didn’t think so.
